The Nellie Mae Foundation funds educational organizations, including universities, colleges, secondary schools, elementary schools, and other nonprofit educational organizations and only support public charities and organizations that are organized in the United States. Organizations such as individuals, religious groups, capital campaigns, endowments, scholarships or fellowships, debt reduction or cash reserves, building construction or renovation, or certain in-direct costs are not support by Nellie Mae Foundation.

The Build Educator Ownership, Leadership, Capacity is one of four grant programs offered. It is focused on building educator capacity through projects like teacher and principal fellowship. The program focuses on developing instructional and professional tools to support educators in the implementation of student-centered approaches to learning in their classroom and districts.

In term of where their funding comes from, I am unsure.

1. How long does it takes for a grant to be processed?
2. What are few things that could prevent a grant application from being accepted other than what is specified above?

My reflection is based on Karisa Tashjian, from the Providence Public Library. Karisa's presentation spoke out the most from my point of view. The way in which she presented her materials and educated the class not just what we know about libraries, but what goes on in the organizational structure that most of the class did not know about. I like how she made a connection to the fish after talking about partnering with other organizations. She mentioned that, partnering with others help bring in bigger ideas especially when everyone is leading in the same direction. The activity with the fish when everyone has to write down the names of fish they know helped me in understanding what she meant by working alone only lead to walking in circle whereas working with others. When there is a team opportunity and everyone is on the same page and has the same goal, there will be one focus and a better result.

Black Lives Matter

Black Lives Matter is a sensitive topic to me personally because each person embraces it differently.
